Extract.
"The Executive Council consider Mr. M’Lean’s final Report, relative to the adjustment of the Land Question at Wanganui, so satisfactory and so ably drawn up, that they recommend it should be published for general information."
A true Extract.

September, 1848.
SIR,—I have the honor to lay before you, for the information of His Excellency the Lieutenant-Governor, my final Report on the adjustment of the Wanganui Land Question.
The progress made from the 1st to the 16th May in collecting native claimants, deciding boundaries, and inquiring into native rights, being already communicated in my letters addressed to His Excellency, dated May 12th and 16th, 1848, this Report may be considered as a continuation of those letters.
Instead of proceeding up the Wanganui river on the 17th of May, as intimated in my letter to His Excellency of the previous day, I found it necessary to direct immediate attention to the Ngatiruanui and Waitotara claimants, who were assembled in considerable numbers at Kai Iwi.
